INSURANCE PROGRAMS WE OFFER

Our clients include some of the country's largest events such as Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits Festival, and even presidential inaugurations. Just because we cover these large events doesn't mean that's all we do. In fact, CSI has provided single event liability insurance for over 5000 events. No special event is too small or too large.  We tailor coverage to fit your specific event. Purchasing something as simple as event insurance for one day can potentially save you from the unforeseen.

Event liability insurance programs for every need

Our special event insurance coverage programs cover events held anywhere in the United States.

CONCERT AND PROMOTER INSURANCE

CSI has placed coverage for more than 1,000 concerts featuring some of the biggest names in entertainment.

We're proud to be a national leader in independent concert promoter insurance. We've represent the Pollstar Magazine's "Independent Promoter of the Year" and Pollstar's "Talent Buyer of the Year." Many of our other clients frequently appear on the Pollstar "Top 100 Promoter" list.

From big arenas to small venues, we have insurance programs to fit your business model. Genre is not an obstacle either — we can cover all genres of music. Whether it's hip-hop, rap, heavy metal, country or rock – or something new and exciting – CSI has you covered.

The Concert Promoters Insurance Experts

Unlike most insurance brokers, we understand your business inside and out. This not only comes from our specialization in entertainment insurance, but because our brokers come from entertainment backgrounds. This is why some of the biggest names in the industry trust CSI for their insurance needs.

EVENT CANCELLATION INSURANCE

With access to several Premier Insurance Companies, CSI can place coverage at the most competitive premiums for almost any event around the globe. Event Cancelation can be purchased to protect event expenses or revenue against cancelation or abandonment caused by reasons beyond your control.

This policy reimburses you for your net loss — should the performance or event be necessarily canceled, postponed or rescheduled due to any peril except what is excluded.

Non-Appearance Insurance:

If your event relies on the appearance of a person or group (performer, speaker, player, invited guest, team, etc.), this option will protect you from the non-appearance of that individual. Generally, including this option requires a medical exam of the specific individual.

WEATHER INSURANCE

Weather insurance protects your event against adverse weather conditions which may reduce revenue or increase expenses from sources such as ticket sales, concessions, food and parking. It can also be used to increase sales for retail operations as well as stabilize a budget for certain businesses where their revenue is tied solely to weather.  Typical buyers of event weather insurance include fairs and festivals, concerts, sporting events, parades and air shows. It can provide coverage for many perils including rain, snow, wind, lightning and adverse weather.

Rain Insurance Guide

Selected Rainfall Threshold

This is the amount of rainfall chosen by you, if met or exceeded, results in a valid claim. Following are some common threshold choices. These descriptions are offered only as a guide, because many variables such as terrain, drainage, and intensity can alter the descriptions.

To understand the differences in the appearance of amounts of rain, pay attention the next time it rains in your area. How long does the rain last? How intrusive is the rain? How much do you think accumulated? Check the local newspaper the next day for a report on rainfall amounts.
